- A working Nepali exporter holds an active PAN, and for VAT-liable trade a VAT registration; the tax clearance search shows whether the taxpayer is current with filings, which is the closest free proxy for good standing.
- Incorporation itself is at the Office of the Company Registrar (https://ocr.gov.np/, 200 on 2026-08-05): the company registration number there and the PAN are different numbers, and a genuine supplier can give both.
- The IRD pages are Nepali-first with an English toggle, so expect to switch language before searching.
Before you sign: five asks no registry can answer
The register proves the company exists and who signs. It says nothing about whether the supplier survives a bad quarter, a fire or a key person leaving. Serious suppliers answer these five asks without friction; hesitation on any of them is information too.
- Business continuity: what happens to your order if their plant loses power, a strike hits or their systems go down? Ask for the plan, not a reassurance.
- Liability insurance: is product or professional liability insured, with which insurer and to what ceiling? A certificate of insurance is a one-page email for a real firm.
- Exit terms: how do you terminate if it goes wrong, what notice and fees apply, and how do you get your tooling, molds or data back?
- Support in numbers: ask for response and resolution times as figures, not adjectives. A supplier who commits to hours in writing has a support process; one who writes fast support does not.
- Named people: who exactly runs production and who owns your account? Continuity of a named team matters more than a polished sales deck, and employee-review sites often show whether that team stays.
General commercial hygiene, not legal advice.
